Slow Cooker Chicken Marsala

Slow Cooker Chicken Marsala

Today I decided I had earned a good dinner because for the last three days I have been dealing with cable issues.

Finally today after two technicians and eight calls I again have internet and I have a phone even though the number has changed again. No matter dinner is on my mind now.

I decided to put something really yummy in the crock pot. Let’s face I deserved it!

I chose to make a recipe I found for

  PREP TIME10 Min

  TOTAL TIME 5 Hr 25 Min

Recipe Slow Cooker Chicken Marsala

1    cloves garlic, finely chopped

½   tablespoon vegetable oil

2    boneless skinless chicken breasts

1/4   teaspoon  salt

½    teaspoon  fresh ground pepper

½ cup sweet Marsala wine or Progresso® chicken broth (from 32-oz carton)

½  cup water

1/8 or a couple tablespoons of cornstarch

Directions

1.     Spray 4- to 5-quart slow cooker with cooking spray. In cooker, place garlic and oil. Sprinkle chicken with salt          and pepper; place in cooker over garlic. ; pour wine over all.

2     Cover; cook on Low heat setting 5 to 6 hours          .

3   Remove chicken from cooker; place on plate and cover to keep warm. In small bowl, mix water and cornstarch until smooth; stir into liquid in cooker. Increase heat setting    to high; cover and cook about 10   minutes or until sauce is slightly thickened.

4   Return chicken to cooker. Cover; cook on High heat setting 5 minutes longer or until chicken is hot.

Now if you want to dress up this meal add canned or fresh mushrooms  personally I get cravings for water chestnuts and I love it with this meal  because I love the crunch of water chestnuts. You don’t like water chestnuts? Doesn’t matter as always this is your meal so do it your way and think outside the box this is about you not me.

     If your store sells parsley by the weigh pick up a small amount it will add a fresh herb flavor to your meal.

     It’s not essential it’s just a little extra that can take this meal over the  top.

      I will put it over white rice and if I am very hungry I will make a green salad.

All I know is I love Chicken Marsala and this time I am making it a home instead of buying the TV dinner at Aldies!

Happy eating! I know you will love this meal!
